Email subject line from a politician: "Final time I'll reach out" Dude, I fucking wish.
Got the Blu-Ray of THE ABYSS this weekend; finished watching it tonight. (I started it last night. It's long.) I saw it in theaters 35 years ago and was shocked how much I remembered. Maybe my favorite Cameron movie, and it looks amazing.
I know I'm not the only one who scanned the whole stack looking for JAWS: THE REVENGE. (It's in there.)

My metal genres rating: New albums by bands I've been listening to for 20+ years Stuff I liked in high school Brutal death metal purchased solely based on cover art Power metal so over-the-top it makes me laugh out loud Death metal/grindcore with free jazz saxophone

Not what I expected when the weather app said cloudy.
New newsletter on Wednesday, featuring thoughts on the Tomeka Reid Quartet (swinging chamber jazz), Deicide (ripping death metal), and Brutalismus 3000 (ultra-obnoxious techno). Subscribe now, so you don't miss out! (My name gives you a hint as to how to find it...)
Wow, the Jazz Journalists Association has nominated us for Best Podcast (our second nomination, I think). Nice! jjajazzawards.org/2024-nominees-…
Promos that contain the words "indie singer-songwriter" get deleted instantly. Promos that contain the words "Finnish grind-crust band" get downloaded instantly.
A link to keep an eye on this coming week: tableoftheelements.bandcamp.com
Sometimes it takes me a while to get around to a band, and I get that "Why did I wait so long?" feeling. Today I finally got around to listening to Knocked Loose and instead I thought, "Ugh, really?" (The riffs are just reheated Emmure and the vocalist SUUUUUCKS.)
Two things can be true at the same time: 1) People always think the music that came out when they were young is better than the music of "now" 2) Young people don't know shit about shit
Transcribing a really wide-ranging interview with Kamasi Washington for @stereogum...
Currently obsessed with Berlin punk/gabber duo Brutalismus 3000, who I very much doubt make their music with American men in their 50s in mind. Still, they'll be in next week's newsletter.
Def Leppard's Pyromania, an album I haven't heard in full in 35 years at least (my little brother had the cassette when we were kids), is making a pretty good Friday night writing/editing soundtrack.
The new Pet Shop Boys album sounds like one of those drugstore-dollar-bin "greatest hits" albums where a Sixties act re-records their old songs, and you buy it by mistake and get those uncanny-valley "this is the song I like...but it's not quite right somehow" shivers.
WOW: Norwood and Dirty Walt are out of Fishbone, leaving Angelo Moore and Chris Dowd the last original members standing. qthemusic.com/p/fishbone-lin…
The thing to understand about High On Fire's Matt Pike is that he's pretty dumb. Music journalists' unwillingness to call a dummy a dummy is at the root of the "controversy" around his "beliefs." I go long on HOF in this week's newsletter. burningambulance.substack.com/p/getting-high…
In this week's BA newsletter, I write about the incredible new High On Fire album, and about the issues surrounding bandleader Matt Pike and his "beliefs": burningambulance.substack.com/p/getting-high…
Meditation exercise: listen to Éliane Radigue's Trilogie de la Mort at the same volume level as your refrigerator and try to determine which is which.
One of my favorite horror movies, the deeply disturbing DEATHDREAM, is getting an ultra-fancy 4K & Blu-Ray reissue next month.
